Discussion on Restoration Design of Landscape Site Based on 3DTerrestrial Laser Scanning : a Case Study of Qiwang Hall in Summer Palace, Beijing, China

A novel application of three-dimensional terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) demonstrates its potential to advance the restoration and preservation of damaged UNESCO World Heritage Sites, specifically showcased through a case study of Qiwang Hall in Beijing's Summer Palace. This method enables precise documentation of structural degradation, filling critical gaps in historical records by integrating TLS data with archival research. The approach not only provides a detailed baseline for site protection but also offers a scalable model for restoring and understanding the value of heritage sites that have suffered significant deterioration. By bridging technological innovation with traditional conservation practices, this study sets a precedent for future restoration efforts, ensuring more accurate reconstructions and deeper historical insights.
